How To Create A LinkedIn Company Profile

Quick process, promising and public results

Thanks for posting this!

Thanks for posting this, I've had a linkedin account for a while but have not done much even though I provide Affordable SEO Services. Although now with your post it will defiantly help make my linkedin profile much stronger, thanks!

Social Networking Marketing - LinkedIn, Facebook, MySpace, Bebo

I do think LinkedIn is a little outdated now, although don't get my wrong I do have a profile on there.  It is good just to be able to submit your business details, information and url but too be honest I rarely use the account, preferring the services of the other social networking sites, Facebook being number 1 and MySpace being number 2.  Thanx Web Pro News - kind regards, have a lovely day, Sue x

Trying to use it for stuff it wasn't designed for

This is useful information Doug, but it really highlights how desperately people want LinkedIn to be something it isn't.  With 30 million profiles, it COULD have much greater value than just a careers site, but it's hard to get that value out and LinkedIn seems to be doing nothing to help.

So it requires a bodge to get any useful information on a member's company.  There are also few tools for brokering valuable new business relationships, in addition to existing ones; and you are actively discouraged from building a network beyond people you already know and get your account restricted if you do; the Q&A sections aren't that well supported across the whole community and take up too much time to get useful information from; and most of the new apps are of dubious value.  As a business networking  tool it has some serious shortcomings.  It's only real attraction is that it seems to be the place to be, although no-one seems very sure why.

How do I do a range for the # of employees?

I noticed that some companies have a range of employees i.e. 20-50. When I try and enter a range linked in will not let me save because the # of employees field only accepts numbers. Is there a way around this?

Thanks
